NorthWall Capital, a credit investment firm providing private capital solutions to counterparties in Western Europe, has appointed Scott Carpenter as its new Chief Operating Officer.
Carpenter replaces Founding Partner and Chief Operating Officer Ian Lokkerbol, who is retiring to pursue a career in nature conservation.
Carpenter most recently spent 11 years at Alpha Wave Global, a $19bn AUM global investment company focused on private equity, private credit and public markets, his last role being Chief Operating Officer.
Prior to that, Carpenter served as Global Head of Operations at alternative credit platform CQS (now Manulife | CQS Investment Management) for eight years. He previously spent 10 years at Credit Suisse, working in a variety of operational management roles in London, New York, Singapore, Sydney, Brisbane and Wellington.
In June, NorthWall announced the final close of its flagship NorthWall European Opportunities Fund II and associated vehicles attracting more than €640m in investor commitments, surpassing its initial €500m target and more than doubling the size of its predecessor vintage.
